Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver donors are subjected to specific postresection hemodynamic changes. The aim was to monitor these changes and to evaluate the effect of magnesium sulfate infusion (MgSO4) on these changes together with total anesthetic agents consumption. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 50 donors scheduled for right hepatotomy were divided into two equal groups. Controls (C) received saline and magnesium group (Mg) received MgSO4 10% (30 mg/kg over 20 min) administered immediately after induction of anesthesia, followed by infusion (10 mg/kg/h) till the end of surgery. Hemodynamics, transesophageal Doppler (TED) data and anesthetic depth guided by Entropy were recorded. RESULTS Postresection both groups demonstrated an increase in heart rate (HR) and cardiac output (COP) in association with lowering of systemic vascular resistance (SVR). The increase in HR with Mg was lower when compared with C, P = 0.00. Increase in COP was lower with Mg compared to (C) (6.1 ± 1.3 vs. 7.5 ± 1.6 L/min, P = 0.00) and with less reduction in SVR compared to C (1145 ± 251 vs. 849.2 ± 215 dynes.s/cm(5), P < 0.01), respectively. Sevoflurane consumption was lower with Mg compared to C (157.1 ± 35.1 vs. 187.6 ± 25.6 ml, respectively, P = 0.001). Reduced fentanyl and rocuronium consumption in Mg group are compared to C (P = 0.00). Extubation time, postoperative patient-controlled fentanyl were lower in Mg than C (P = 0.001). CONCLUSION TED was able to detect significant hemodynamic changes associated with major hepatotomy. Prophylactic magnesium helped to reduce these changes with lower anesthetic and analgesics consumption and an improvement in postoperative pain relief.

Portal Hyperperfusion after Extended Hepatectomy Does Not Induce a Hepatic Arterial Buffer Response (HABR) but Impairs Mitochondrial Redox State and Hepatocellular Oxygenation. PLoS One 2015; 10:e0141877. [PMID: 26523932 PMCID: PMC4629903 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0141877] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2015] [Accepted: 10/14/2015] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Background & Aims Portal hyperperfusion after extended hepatectomy or small-for-size liver transplantation may induce organ dysfunction and failure. The underlying mechanisms, however, are still not completely understood. Herein, we analysed whether hepatectomy-associated portal hyperperfusion induces a hepatic arterial buffer response, i.e., an adaptive hepatic arterial constriction, which may cause hepatocellular hypoxia and organ dysfunction. Methods Sprague-Dawley rats underwent 30%, 70% and 90% hepatectomy. Baseline measurements before hepatectomy served as controls. Hepatic arterial and portal venous flows were analysed by ultrasonic flow measurement. Microvascular blood flow and mitochondrial redox state were determined by intravital fluorescence microscopy. Hepatic tissue pO2 was analysed by polarographic techniques. Hepatic function and integrity were studied by bromosulfophthalein bile excretion and liver histology. Results Portal blood flow was 2- to 4-fold increased after 70% and 90% hepatectomy. This, however, did not provoke a hepatic arterial buffer response. Nonetheless, portal hyperperfusion and constant hepatic arterial blood flow were associated with a reduced mitochondrial redox state and a decreased hepatic tissue pO2 after 70% and 90% hepatectomy. Microvascular blood flow increased significantly after hepatectomy and functional sinusoidal density was found only slightly reduced. Major hepatectomy further induced a 2- to 3-fold increase of bile flow. This was associated with a 2-fold increase of bromosulfophthalein excretion. Conclusions Portal hyperperfusion after extended hepatectomy does not induce a hepatic arterial buffer response but reduces mitochondrial redox state and hepatocellular oxygenation. This is not due to a deterioration of microvascular perfusion, but rather due to a relative hypermetabolism of the remnant liver after major resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM In general, the spleen is one of the abdominal organs connected by the portal system, and a splenectomy improves hepatic functions in the settings of partial hepatectomy (Hx) for portal hypertensive cases or living donor liver transplantation with excessive portal vein flow. Those precise mechanisms remain still unclear; therefore, we investigated the DNA expression profile in the spleen after 90% Hx in rats using complementary DNA microarray and pathway analysis. METHODS Messenger RNAs (mRNAs) were prepared from three rat spleens at each time point (0, 3, and 6 h after 90% Hx). Using the gene chip, mRNA was hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (Affymetrix®) and pathway analysis was done with Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA®). RESULTS We determined the 3-h or 6-h/0-h ratio to assess the influence of Hx, and cut-off values were set at more than 2.0-fold or less than 1/2 (0.5)-fold. Chemokine activity-related genes including Cxcl1 (GRO1) and Cxcl2 (MIP-2) related pathway were upregulated in the spleen. Also, immediate early response genes including early growth response-1 (EGR1), FBJ murine osteosarcoma (FOS) and activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) related pathway were upregulated in the spleen. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that in the spleen the expression of numerous inflammatory-related genes would occur after 90% Hx. The spleen could take a harmful role and provide a negative impact during post Hx phase due to the induction of chemokine and transcription factors including GRO1 and EGR1.

Abstract
PURPOSE Major hepatic resections may result in hemodynamic changes. Aim is to study transesophageal Doppler (TED) monitoring and fluid management in comparison to central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring. A follow-up comparative hospital based study. METHODS 59 consecutive cirrhotic patients (CHILD A) undergoing major hepatotomy. CVP monitoring only (CVP group), (n=30) and TED (Doppler group), (n=29) with CVP transduced but not available on the monitor. Exclusion criteria include contra-indication for Doppler probe insertion or bleeding tendency. An attempt to reduce CVP during the resection in both groups with colloid restriction, but crystalloids infusion of 6 ml/kg/h was allowed to replace insensible loss. Post-resection colloids infusion were CVP guided in CVP group (5-10 mmHg) and corrected flow time (FTc) aortic guided in Doppler group (>0.4 s) blood products given according to the laboratory data. RESULTS Using the FTc to guide Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 significantly decreased intake in TED versus CVP (1.03 [0.49] versus 1.74 [0.41] Liter; P<0.05). Nausea, vomiting, and chest infection were less in TED with a shorter hospital stay (P<0.05). No correlation between FTc and CVP (r=0.24, P > 0.05). Cardiac index and stroke volume of TED increased post-resection compared to baseline, 3.0 (0.9) versus 3.6 (0.9) L/min/m(2), P<0.05; 67.1 (14.5) versus 76 (13.2) ml, P<0.05, respectively, associated with a decrease in systemic vascular resistance (SVR) 1142.7 (511) versus 835.4 (190.9) dynes.s/cm(5), P<0.05. No significant difference in arterial pressure and CVP between groups at any stage. CVP during resection in TED 6.4 (3.06) mmHg versus 6.1 (1.4) in CVP group, P=0.6. TED placement consumed less time than CVP (7.3 [1.5] min versus 13.2 [2.9], P<0.05). CONCLUSION TED in comparison to the CVP monitoring was able to reduced colloids administration post-resection, lower morbidity and shorten hospital stay. TED consumed less time to insert and was also able to present significant hemodynamic changes. Advanced surgical techniques of resection play a key role in reducing blood loss despite CVP more than 5 cm H2O. TED fluid management protocols during resection need to be developed.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effect of 90% partial hepatectomy (90% PHx) and the involvement of bile on ileal motility in conscious rats. METHODS Two strain gauge force transducers were chronically implanted in the ileum of each of 20 rats. The rats were divided into four groups, three of which underwent 90% PHx. The experiments were performed with the rats in a conscious, fasted state. After ileal motility was recorded, bile or saline was perfused into the duodenum of each rat in two of the 90% PHx groups. The effects of the perfusion on ileal motility were observed and recorded using the motility index (MI), defined as the area under the contraction cues after surgery and expressed as the ratio to the MI in the preoperational motility. The time of the first passage of stool after surgery was recorded. RESULTS A typical migrating motor complex (MMC) pattern was observed in normal fasted rats. Increased MMC cycle lengths and a decreased MI at 1 day and 3 days after 90% PHx were observed. The MMC after 90% PHx was characterized by an increased duration of Phase 2-like activity. The MMC cycle length, the MI, and the time of the first passage of stool after 90% PHx were improved by perfusion of bile into the duodenum through the biliary cannula but were not influenced by perfusion of saline into the duodenum through the biliary cannula. CONCLUSION The MMC cycle length and the MI were inhibited after 90% PHx, with the involvement of decreased bile flow into the gastrointestinal tract by liver resection.

Abstract
Intubation and mechanical ventilation after burn contribute to pneumonia-related infection. Although postburn presence or absence of endotoxin has been described, inactivation of Toll-like receptor 4 signaling has been shown to improve postburn organ function, suggesting that LPS participates in burn-related susceptibility to infection. We hypothesized that bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (rBPI) given postburn would attenuate myocardial inflammation/dysfunction associated with postburn septic challenge given 7 days postburn. Rats were given burn over 40% total body surface area, lactated Ringer 4 ml.kg(-1).% burn(-1); burns received either vehicle or rBPI, 1 mg.kg(-1).h(-1) for 48 h postburn. Postburn day 7, subgroups of burns and shams were given intratracheal Klebsiella pneumoniae, 4 x 10(6) CFU to produce burn complicated by sepsis; additional sham and burn subgroups received intratracheal vehicle to produce sham sepsis. Vehicle-treated groups: 1) sham burn + sham sepsis 2) sham burn + sepsis, 3) burn + sham sepsis, 4) burn + sepsis. rBPI-treated groups: 5) sham burn + sham sepsis, 6) sham burn + sepsis, 7) burn + sham sepsis, 8) burn + sepsis. Cardiomyocyte cytokine secretion and myocardial function were studied 24 h after septic challenge, postburn day 8. Pneumonia-related infection 8 days after vehicle-treated burn produced myocyte cytokine secretion (pg/ml), indicated by increased myocyte TNF-alpha, 549 +/- 46; IL-1beta, 50 +/- 8; IL-6, 286 +/- 3 levels compared with levels in sham myocytes (TNF-alpha, 88 +/- 11; IL-1beta, 7 +/- 1; IL-6, 74 +/- 10; P < 0.05). Contractile dysfunction was evident from lower left ventricular pressure +/-dP/dt values in this group compared with sham. rBPI attenuated myocyte cytokine responses to septic challenge and improved contractile function, suggesting that burn-related mobilization of microbial-like products contribute to postburn susceptibility to infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipopolysaccharides mediate inflammation in liver ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) and partial liver resection (PHX). Bovine intestinal alkaline phosphatase (BIAP) detoxifies lipopolysaccharides by dephosphorylation and reduces inflammation in models of sepsis. This study examined the protective effects of BIAP administration in models of partial (70 per cent) liver I/R with or without partial resection of all non-ischaemic lobes during ischaemia (30 per cent). METHODS Male Wistar rats were divided into six groups: I/R + BIAP, I/R + saline, I/R + PHX + BIAP and I/R + PHX + saline, PHX only or sham laparotomy only. A single dose of BIAP (0.5 units/g) or vehicle (saline) was administered 5 min before reperfusion. Inflammatory response, and hepatic and pulmonary injury were assessed during 24 h of reperfusion. RESULTS I/R, with or without PHX, increased all markers of inflammation, and hepatic and pulmonary damage (P < 0.050 versus sham operation). I/R + PHX significantly increased release of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and hepatic neutrophil influx compared with I/R only (P < 0.050). BIAP treatment decreased hepatic wet/dry ratios, neutrophil influx and histopathological damage after I/R with or without PHX (P < 0.050), and also AST, ALT and interleukin (IL)-6 production after I/R + PHX (P < 0.050). BIAP treatment reduced the neutrophil influx after I/R, and pulmonary histopathological injury was decreased after I/R with or without PHX. CONCLUSION BIAP attenuates hepatic and pulmonary injury after partial liver I/R and PHX.

Abstract
Indocyanine green (ICG) can be used to measure cardiac output (CO), hepatic function, and blood volume. We used ICG to describe the effect of right hepatectomy for living liver donation on intraoperative hemodynamics and perioperative liver function. ICG disposition was determined in 12 healthy adult living liver donors during the dissection phase and immediately after removal of the right hepatic lobe. In addition, measurements were repeated postoperative day 5. After injecting ICG, plasma concentrations were obtained for approximately 10 minutes by noninvasive pulse dye densitometry. CO was significantly higher and systemic vascular resistance was significantly lower immediately after removal of the right lobe compared with those obtained before resection (6.02 +/- 1.12 v 10.28 +/- 3.84 L/min; P < .05; 639 +/- 254 v 1,007 +/- 264 dyn x s x cm(-5); P < .05). Heart rate also increased significantly after removal of the right lobe from 62 +/- 10 to 83 +/- 9 beats/min (P < .05). Mean arterial pressure and central venous pressure were not different between measurements. The average elimination rate constant of ICG (K(ICG)) was reduced by more than 50% immediately after resection of the right lobe in comparison to baseline (0.25 +/- 0.096 v 0.12 +/- 0.03; P < .05). Day 5, K(ICG) was still decreased from baseline (0.25 +/- 0.096 v 0.16 +/- 0.04; P < .05), but approximately 25% greater than the immediate postresection K(ICG) (0.16 +/- 0.04 v 0.12 +/- 0.03; P > .05). Findings show profound intraoperative hemodynamic changes during living liver donation. In addition, we show that functional recovery of the liver is likely to be slower than morphological recovery, and such clinical parameters as coagulation profile may not be a good index of fully restored hepatic function.
